Because VR is a novelty, and because humans don’t really want to have something strapped to their face for very long.
AR has so much more potential than VR ever did. But, AR is so much more complex than VR is. And, AR will never get big until the hardware is right first (think about mobile phones VS iPhones). When the hardware is powerful and beautiful (like the iPhone), the developers will pile on and start creating apps.
